Construction traffic would disrupt me and the area.

Waste collectors often do not empty bins on the allotted day but on the next day due to full trucks.

The speed limit- 20mph is not followed, new housing and increased parking on the road will exacerbate that, increasing traffic, pollution, noise and the risk of accident and injury.
Parking issue - parking on pavements, making driving difficult and pavements difficult to use for those with prams or mobility issues.
Site unsuitable as it will put pressure on stressed roads, shops, medical centre and primary school.
Schools - oversubscribed.
flood risk - due to house building and ground springs. The site is essential to maintain good flow of water off the moors and the bypass.
Noise or pollution barrier would be required between the houses and the road.
Impact on footpath.
Destruction of local wildlife and the refuge provided by the hedges from the road.
More suitable brown belt pieces of land should be considered.
Proposals disproportionately large for Addingham which has been allocated a bigger percentage of houses than the surrounding villages.
